@ Sandi That's a good point if I may add to it / Make sure to have a valid EHIC card( free if you don't click on the wrong web site) Also make sure that you have travel insurance that covers you for bikes of over 125 cc many policies don't so read the small print Additionally make sure that your breakdown cover will be adequate in the event of an accident ( as opposed to a breakdown ) again read the small print
Oh I forgot to say that you still need personal health cover too and if you have any issues they will cost you more but if you don't declare them you may be up a creek with no paddle iykwim
iykwim sounds like a dyslexic Geordie
if you know what i mean

I have no sea legs at all, I got motion sickness on a sub that was alongside and another time when I was stood on the jetty looking down at the water, the motion of the boats bobbing up and down made me feel
Thanx Big Twin for ya link , it's all comin along nicely only problem is finding the time lol. Im hoping to have the routes done earl part of next week. BM'ers you must bear ( as in grizzly lol ) in mind the route is not binding and will probably change as we travel' as some might want to spent time at one place and others might want to go to the next place and stay ther for a while . it's open for personal opinions and wish'es.thats it for now , will keep ya posted folk's
Dizzydot you will be more than welcome and im sure vladimir would welcome the company..Im hoping to have the route don by Wednesday at the latest and then put it in the event calendar..keep lookin BM'ers.
Apologies from Andy if you're anxiously waiting for a route - he hasn't got computer access at the mo - explains his absence from the chatroom too, gosh it's been quiet without him!! Hopefully he'll be online again soon.
Hi guys and gals !!..sorry for the delay with the route but unfortunately with no computor access and a couple of other things that have took me away from this , i can only appologise..Good news is "im back" and now for the catch up!..
Those of you who are joinin us on 2nd week, need the date and time approx that you will be on ya way in France Plz ?? ..many thanks Andy..
I can make it any date from 1st aug. I'll sort out my travel arrangements when I have seen your itinery. May be best to meet you in the evening wherever you are staying, No pressure then for anyone to be at a set place at a set time.
Hay Kaz that would be fun more than welcome,, we've all got our fingers crossed 4 ya..
Vladamir , was thinkin along the lines of us holding up for 2-3 days depending on where we are so give you guys a chance to meet and not be too shattered from getting to us,, let me know what ya think ??..
Vladamir, the 2-3 days will be a base for the group and a chance for the group to do what they want and go and visit places on there own if they want to !! The first week's going to be a bit of a treck for some as it's their first tour so they may welcome the break..im off site for a week so by the time i'm back the route will be finalised with just minor adjustment's to be made if i've missed owt out lol..
You'll need travel insurance. make sure it covers biking. you'll also need a EHIC card that gives you the french equilavent of the NHS (free from the ehic site) Make sure you have bike insurance and breakdown cover for France (usually included in your insurance) A spare set of bulbs. 2 breathalisers. you can get a kit containing 2 from Halfords for about a fiver. you must carry a hi-vis incase of breakdown (as yet it does not have to worn when riding) I always take spare gloves with me there's nothing worse than having to put wet gloves on. I always take a spare set of keys with me, your a long way from home if you lose them. You'll also need your driving documents with you. as for anything else that will depend on the type of accomadation arranged.
